JIiiw i it lliat the shoe .actor) lost 811,000,
ns stuud in tlic Asp, and employed help at
"starvation wages"? The Ixxiks show that the
largest leak was on imperfeotly made goods for
which the hantls were paid in full. Referred to
the venomous Ap.
The "black eve" published by Hitter's Asp
gainst the shoe factory was re-published by the
Lewisburg Saturday Neics and the Mifflinburg
Times. Now letters are coming from Union
County wanting to know how it happened thai
?1 1,000 was lost and yet the factory paid "star
vation wages."
Pilgrim Hitter told a heavy stockholder in
the shoe factory last Friday that he found his
statement concerning the shoe factory very pop
ular; that he had added 100 new subscribers to
his list in the last two weeks. Ed, Shindel, who
has been soliciting for the Asp, can tell a differ
ent story. 1ct him recount the numerous re
buffs Shindel had to take for the Pilgrim.
ONE of the most cowardly and inhuman
wretches in human form, who shot an I killed
his mother and brother and attempted to kill his
father last week at Kline's drove, near Sunburv
is John (iuliek, an account of whose capture is
given in the news columns of the Post this week
He is devoid of all human feeling and is lit only
for the worst penalty the law prescribes for such
demons. The evidence that will hang him must
be given by his poor old father.
A committee has been appointed to sell at
private sale the shoe factory with building, ma
chiaeryi book accounts and all assets. After
deducting 25 per cent from the value ot the ma
hinery there still remains $3000 worth more as
sets than liabilities. It will lie sold to one, two
or three persons who assume or pay the liabili
ties amounting to about $11,000 and who agree
to pay an interest of six per cent on the capital
stock after the profits of the concern eiial the
capital stock. Investors will do well to investi
gate this plant
Future of the Automobile.
THE future of the automobile is commanding
Consideration everywhere. Owners of modern
machines are wondering how soon some new in
vention in the same line will make tin ir machines
back numbers, while prospective purchasers won
der if they are safe in buying to-day. NattiralU
these are questions that are bard to answer striis
factor ily but it semis to le the public opinion
that the automobile is destined to undergo num
erous changes ere a standard type has been estab
lished. Perhaps one of the best authorities on the
subject is Commissioner Duell of the patent ui
flee, who has recently expressed an opinion that
tin' automobile is destined to become ;is great a
fad as the bicycle, and will outlive it because of
its universal utility. It is certain that the Am
ericans have more inventive genius thau any
other people, and it is reasonable to believe that
all other parts of the world will e outdistanced
by a machine that will first be seen in America.
Everybody rec guizes that the desideratum in a
motor-vehicle is that it shall combine simplicity
and durability with cheapness. Public favor is
not won by complicated, heavy and cumbersome
machinery that is Kable at any moment to get
out of order. ( )n the contrary, it is a demand
of Americans than an acceptable automobile shall
lie reasonably light and durable. They want a
machine that will last, and one that will lie cheap
enough to allow or its purchase by the class of
people who today content themselves with a
horse and buggy.
Visitors to the Pan-American Exposition will
have opportunity to inspect the highest and lat
est type of automobiles, and they will look upon
machines operated by various powers. Manufact
urers will place their best products oo exhibition,
and the machines displayed there may bring
peaceful hours to many a family horse.
LITERARY NOTES.
THE OUTLOOK.
Thk proposition has been made that Congress
-hould establish a National "Park at Valley
Forge, where are to Ik; found nmnv of the most
interesting relics of the most dramatic episode of
our Revolutionary War. The country romd
alxnit these relies is well suited for the purjMe,
as is shown by the many interesting illustrations
in the article on "Valley Forge as a Natioi.al
Park," by E. W. Booker, in the April Maga
sine Number of Thk OUTLOOK. ($: a yoar.

woman's home oompahiok.
The Countess von Waldersec forms the snb
ject of a fascinating article by Mabel Percy Has
kell in the Woman's Home ( omjxininn for May.
Few eople are aware that the Countess is an
American by birth. The story of her life reads
like romance. She has remarkable cleverness,
and had not a little to do in bringing about tin
marriage of William II. with the Princess Vic
toria Augusta of Bchleswig-Holstein, Tin
Countess enjoys the distinction of being the only
American woman who was ever aunt to an Em
press. I.ADIEs' HOME JOURNAL.
The unique project of photographing the en
tire route of Sheridan's ride, from Winchester,
Virginia, to Cedar Creek, as it is to-day, has
been carried out by The Ladies' Home Journal,
and the result will lie shown in a picture story
of fourteen photographs. Sheridan and his aides
on horse-hack, from historical pictures, have
been introduced into each picture, so that the
ride of 1864 is shown as if it were taken to-day
through that country, which, in reality, has
changed but little.
REVIEW OK REVIEWS.
Industrial topics are prominent in the edi
torial discussion which occupies the opening
pages of the April Review of Reviews. The edi
tor's comments on the formation of the "billion
dollar" steel company, and on the threatened
strike of the anthracite coal miners are pointed
and instructive. There are also several suggest
ive paragraphs on the recent railroad consolida
tions, the question of government ownership in
Canada, and modern transportation problems in
general, including an exposition of the American
canal policy.

Nice, April President Loutiot'!
visit to the Mediterranean coast opener
under excellent auspices. The vc.ithtr
during the past tew days was unusual.
ly chilly, but It brightened yesterday
and sunshine welcomed the president',
arival in the morning.
M. Loubet has chosen the most
charming season for a tour ot
Riviera. The whole countryside Is ,
mass of bloom of varied hues and Nig
lUelf, aa the presidential train steam
ed In, displayed floral decorations th
erywhere. The windows and bnlrnnir
were profusely adorned with Karlands
of roses, carnations, wall flowers and
Anemones, while flowers also hunt
from baskets suspended from the
Venetiun masts and triumphal archet
over the main streets.
The president Is accompanied liv hit
wife, the minister of foreign affairs. M.
Delcasse, and the minister of war, M.
Andre. The only stoppages made oj.
the way here were at Cannes and An
tibes, where there were brief reception
upon the part of the local authorities.
But all the stations were gaily decor
ated with flags.
There has been a great Influx of vlj.
ltors here. Numbers of Italians who.
with the regiments of Infantry and
members of the gymnastic societies,
were in uniform, enhanced the color
and animation of the street scenes.
Troops lined the route from the sta
tion to the prefecture, where the presi
dent will stay while tn Nice.
A vast concourse gathered early In
the morning to await President iu
bet's arrival. He was welcomed by the
military and municipal functionaries
the station, where the "Marseilluse"
was played by a regimental band. Pro
ceeding to the court yard, where the
Alpine troops were drawn up, the
president distributed a numhor of
decorations to the officers and men. He
then entered a gala landeau and was
driven slowly to the prefecture amid i
fanfare of bugles and the rolling of
drums. The president's reception hr
the spectators was meat warm. Tbe
cheering was unceasing for the presi
dent and for the republic.
The usual receptions were held it
the prefecture, where the consular,
military, municipal and religious
bodies, through their representative!,
delivered short addresses, which the
president replied to.
Replying to an address from a dele
gation of the clergy, President Loubet
pointed out that he had always favored
tolerance toward the episcopate, u be
believed they ought to be a staunch
auxiliary of the government In effect
ing the union ot all Frenchmen for the
welfare of the country.
To an address delivered by Oes.
Malinger on behalf of the garrison,
President Loubet assured the delega
tion that the government was proud of
the army aad knew the giant efforts
It had made to be ready for all eventu
alities. The Fifteenth army corn
were especially worthy of the confi
dence shown in them in charging them
with the safety of the post of honor
& few steps from the frontier.
After receiving the foreign consuls
President Loubet was entertained br
the various officials at luncheon.
The president's visit to Nice to
merely a prelude to the more Important
fetes at Toulon, where President lioo
bet will arrive tomorrow atterrronn on
board a warship, being escorted frora
